The Wonderful Honan Chapel
UCC, Cork
The Honan Chapel is modest in size and outwardly presents as a simple oratory church, however it is steeped in intricate decoration with references to the Hiberno Romanesque period combined with a contrasting mix of architectural and decorative styles which blend together to form a unique richness not seen in any chapel of the period. The conservation and repair of this chapel has protected and enriched this chapel which is unique of its time and has been scheduled in many publications including “The Honan a Golden Vision” by Virginia Teehan (2004).
